Intravenous isosorbide dinitrate and nitroglycerin administered within early hours of myocardial infarction have a marked antianginal effect, stabilize the size of necrotic focus and promptly control acute left-ventricular insufficiency.

It can therefore be used more extensively in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
